Begin immortality by slaying demons.

Chapter 778: Entering the Second Rank, Farewell to the Ten Thousand Demons Palace
In the endless mountains behind the half-fallen cliff.

Shen Yi found a secluded place and sat down on the ground.

The sudden appearance of Immortal Chi Yun was naturally unexpected, but he would not feel any guilt because of it.

From the moment this catastrophe began, Shen Yi and these major sects stood on completely opposite positions.

Chiyun Cave seemed to have been bullied by Qingguang Mountain, but in fact, in the eyes of the people of the Divine Dynasty, there was no difference between the two. They were both monsters that chose their prey.

Even if it happened again, Shen Yi would still not show mercy to Mao Feng and his men.

Don't forget that when Ling Su wanted to seize the imperial energy, he borrowed the demons from the disciples of Chiyun Cave.

"call."

Shen Yi let out a long sigh and suppressed the lingering fear in his heart. This was probably the closest he had been to death since he left Nanzhou.

But I managed to make it through.

This means that he is only one step away from completely saving his life.

Just step over it and you will reach the realm of immortality and freedom!
Shen Yi had previously relied on those Bodhisattvas to accumulate a total of more than 50,000 kalpas of demon life and imperial energy. Later, in Youyao's Taoist temple, he killed seven third-grade great demons. Together with the previous deer boy, the number reached a terrifying 120,000 kalpas.

As for the remaining eighty thousand kalpas...

Shen Yi raised his eyes to look up at the sky, and the imperial aura in the sky was continuously gathering towards him from the four prefectures.

The statues that were put down at the beginning are now consuming incense day and night.

The seven-headed demons did not actually hurt anyone. Relying solely on their powerful demonic power to scare the common people would certainly not be very effective. However, the boundless black cloud that Shen Yi deliberately released at the time, in cooperation with the disciples of Lingxu Cave below, could barely make up for some of the damage.

The main reason is that the place is too big. Including Kaiyuan Prefecture, there are five prefectures, equivalent to one-sixth of Beizhou, and it is only used to support one person.

If it weren’t for this great calamity, in the past, which immortal would dare to dream of such a good thing.

Shen Yi closed his eyes, and golden pills spread out on the ring until they occupied his entire field of vision.

He used his soul to quickly count them.

The demon's life span and the imperial energy added together finally totaled a full two hundred thousand kalpas.

The golden pill was still condensing, but Shen Yi had already opened his eyes. He clenched his palms tightly and looked up at the sky again in the way recorded in Yuchen Baogao.

The terrifying and disturbing "iceberg" once again revealed its corner.

The patterns spread across the entire sky, representing the path of this world, slowly appeared in front of Shen Yi. The two faintly glowing lines among them were his staircase to heaven!

The accumulation of two hundred thousand calamities has brought about this opportunity to ascend to heaven.

If we fail, I don’t know how long it will take to put it together again.

Even though Shen Yi had come all the way from obscurity and had a relatively stable mind, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous when he arrived in front of the Heavenly Gate.

He adjusted his breathing and carefully sacrificed the Tao fruit and fruit position in his body.

In a place where only Shen Yi could see, the golden statue shrouded in black clouds also opened its eyes, then soared into the air, following the two flickering lines, and finally took the first step towards the Heavenly Way!
Boom!Boom!Boom!
Every step of the golden body was like a heavy hammer hitting Shen Yi's brow, causing his head to buzz.

But he still stared with his eyes wide open, staring as hard as he could at the end point of the silk threads in the sky.

Whether it is the fruit of subduing dragons and tigers, or the fruit of the divine Tao, any one of them has the power to overturn rivers and seas and destroy the world.

But at this moment, when the two are combined, climbing the Heavenly Pattern is like a mortal walking on a thin rope between high cliffs. Every step is dangerous, as if one may fall to pieces at any time.

Gurgling——

Shen Yi suddenly heard bursts of water sounds in his ears. He thought it was the change that the Black Cloud Golden Body had encountered, but the next moment, the severe pain in his skin made his whole face twitch.

He looked down and saw that his body had been entangled in black water at some point, and his fair skin was quickly melting in the water.

Water-soluble flesh and blood!
At this moment, Shen Yi had used up all of his cultivation, and could only watch helplessly as his body turned into a skeleton, and he could even see his internal organs beating inside.

But his path was more stable than he had imagined. He was also surrounded by evil water, which directly sank into the black cloud and could not even touch the golden body.

The flood has just passed and the wind suddenly blows!
Amidst the rustling gale, Shen Yi looked at his bones that were as tough as jade, which were drifting away bit by bit like quicksand in the invisible wind and waves.

The wind erodes their bones.

When the bones were scattered and the internal organs were spread all over the ground, invisible flames sprang up and burned everything on the ground to ashes.

In this final fire.

After a lifetime of hard work, all is in vain.

"..."

When Shen Yi opened his eyes again from his trance, he was already standing at the top of the sky full of lines. Looking up, he found himself standing inside the "iceberg".

What comes into view are the Dao fruits and fruit positions, representing the giants from all sides who have set foot here.

Now, it seems like it's my turn to let go.

The moment this thought flashed through his mind, Shen Yi suddenly floated out of his body. He looked down and saw that the original golden body and black cloud had turned into two colors of light, which were still inseparable.

After a long time, the golden light began to change first.

I saw a real white jade hand sticking out from it, followed by the head, shoulders, and the remaining five arms.

He was taller than an ordinary man, with broader shoulders, and long ribbons wrapped around his arms. They were clearly made of white jade, but they swayed like ribbons.

His whole body is full of strong and perfect muscles, a true sculpture by heaven and earth, without the slightest flaw.

Until finally the white jade moon rose and hung behind him.

This jade-like figure with a warm and smooth body finally walked out of the golden light completely. Even her eyes were like jade balls, without pupils, and her whole body exuded an inhuman aura of nobility.

Shen Yi held his breath.

The fleeting Dao pattern reappeared in his sight. At first, he only saw the two words "immovable", but now the full picture was finally revealed.

Immovable King...

The Bodhisattva of Great Freedom and Immovability!
This white jade creation is the skin in which he walks in the world. The moment this body appears, it means that he has transcended the two worlds and entered the realm of immortality and freedom.

"The issue is--"

Surprised, Shen Yi suddenly paused.

Walking around in the world in this manner, not to mention the question of whether he looks like a human being or not, how can he continue to mingle in the Three Immortals Sect in the future?

As this thought arose, there was movement in the remaining black light.

He also stretched out his arm first, and then his wide sleeves swayed, and a gorgeous black dress came into Shen Yi's sight. On his handsome face, which was almost carved from the same mold, he had a straight nose, thin lips, and cold eyes.

Her hair was tied with a golden hairpin and a jade belt hung around her waist.

When he stood with his hands hanging down in this chaos, Taoist patterns emerged.

Yuxu Universe...

Hunyuan Daluo Yuxu Universe Golden Immortal.

Two figures stood straight with their backs to each other, the beautiful lady was bathed in golden light while the Taoist was hidden in the darkness. They were two sides of the same coin and difficult to separate.

"Tsk!"

Shen Yi looked for a long time, and finally was willing to look away and looked at the other Dao fruits and fruit positions around him.

With his keen sense, he could naturally feel that these things contained different amounts of Tribulation Power, which was used to reshape the skin. The smallest of them was far more than the 200,000 Tribulation Power he held in his hands.

If only we could find a way to get these people out...

Just when Shen Yi was thinking carefully, he suddenly realized something was wrong. He was in the chaos, but he was still shrouded in shadow?
He looked up suspiciously.

What came into view were five familiar black cities, crashing down towards him.

The Hall of Ten Thousand Demons...

"No! I've become an immortal! Don't make trouble!"

Shen Yi was dumbfounded, unable to understand why something that could only fight with a white rhinoceros seal could follow him into the chaos of the Heavenly Dao.

He instinctively stretched out his hand to stop it, but in an instant he had to watch helplessly as the five cities suppressed his Dao Fruit and Fruit Status, and he fell straight back into the mortal world.

I do not know how long it has been.

In the Lingxu Mountains, a Taoist priest dressed in gorgeous black robes stood up and stared at the nothingness in front of him with a distracted look.

There was no trace of coldness on his handsome face anymore, only deep grief and indignation.

Shen Yi wanted to smash the dark hall in front of him with a punch.

The five cities that were originally used to suppress all the monsters now contained the golden and mysterious light transformed from his own Dao fruit and fruit position.

Only by placing one's cultivation in the hands of Heaven can one gain immortality.

Because even the leaders of the two factions do not have the ability to break the way of heaven and harm the essence of the cultivators therein.

What is this now?

"You're going to put it in for me? Who do you think you are? The way of heaven?"

Shen Yi was breathing heavily. The immortality that he had been dreaming of had now turned into this ghostly appearance.

Let’s not talk about whether others have the means to break into the Palace of Ten Thousand Demons.

He didn't even know if he could rely on the power of calamity to reshape his body if it was destroyed.

"It's fine if you pretend, but why do you only pretend to be me?"

Shen Yi spent a long time but still couldn't accept this reality. He punched hard. The Dao fruits beside him carried so much calamity power. If he brought a few more down, it would be enough for him to spend.

The old ancestor Shenxu, the Southern Emperor and other monsters had already prepared to congratulate their master on ascending to the heavenly way and achieving the second level of great freedom.

After seeing this situation, everyone was silent, not even daring to breathe.

Fortunately, Shen Yi just sat on the ground for a while, then soon stood up with a gloomy face and walked forward unsteadily.

"My Lord, are we leaving Beizhou?"

Ancestor Shenxu mustered up the courage to ask. After all, almost all of the master's previous plans were for a breakthrough to the second level. No matter how difficult it was, as long as he could hold on until the breakthrough, everything would be fine.

Only by possessing immortal supernatural powers can one support the other party to continue to cause trouble under the noses of those gods, Buddhas and immortals.

Now that something like this has happened, it's like there's no longer any protection... If I stay any longer, as my status rises, I'll inevitably come into contact with those sect leaders and emperors, and one day something will go wrong.

"Return to the mountain and put in solitary confinement."

Shen Yi didn't even turn his head, with a hint of resentment in his voice, but he didn't even hesitate for a moment, and walked towards the half-fallen cliff indignantly.

……

Beizhou, Xuanwei Cave.

As the first disciple of Xuanwei Cave, Li Shan's performance in recent years has been remarkable. He has already shown signs of forming his own school and was originally the most promising of the three.

Therefore, he rarely asks his master for help anymore.

After all, if you want to be the ruler of the world, how can you act like a baby?

Today was a rare day for him to come back and reminisce with Xuanweizi.

"Master, what's wrong?"

He noticed the old man's momentary distraction.

"nothing."

Xuanweizi frowned, he had just clearly sensed that there was a cultivator of the same realm beside him, but strangely there was a flavor of both sects. It had the immovable spirit of the Bodhi sect, but also the free and ethereal spirit of the Three Immortals sect.

The reason he was distracted just now was that he wanted to go back to the Heavenly Dao to take a closer look.

But what is puzzling is that the people around are still those familiar faces, and there are no new monks stepping into the chaos at all.

"Never mind, maybe I got it wrong."

Xuan Weizi carefully looked around a few more times before retracting his gaze and looking at his disciple: "Let's talk about your story. How do you feel now?"

Hearing this, Li Shan gave a bitter smile: "To be honest, Master, the pressure is still quite great."

In the battle at Tianta Mountain, Master Taixu killed three people of the same realm including Youyao, which established his status as the strongest among the younger generation of the Three Immortals Sect.

Qixian and I had wasted many years at the third level and had already reached our limit. No matter how hard we tried, we could not surpass Junior Brother Taixu in magic unless our Master was willing to bestow a more powerful spiritual treasure...

Let’s not talk about whether Xuanwei Cave has such treasures. Even if it does, it may not be able to play a role relying on one’s own cultivation. Even if one takes a step back, what’s the point of defeating the opponent with this thing? In the end, it’s not about who has the stronger ability, but about which immortal vein has a deeper foundation. It will be a joke if people tell others about it.

"What we choose is the Immortal Emperor, not the divine general. The ability to fight may not be the most important thing." Xuanweizi chuckled. It is not easy for the disciple to reach this point. The rest depends more on luck.

"Disciple understands." At this point, Li Shan shook his head with emotion and said softly: "But Master doesn't know..."

Under the interference of Uncle Chi Yun, Junior Brother Taixu was only perfunctorily put in solitary confinement for a period of time. Although he did not show up, the disciples of Lingxu Cave did not rest for even half a day.

As early as several months ago, Lingxu Cave took over the four prefectures as a matter of course.

First he beheaded the Bodhisattva to vent the anger of his followers, and then he beheaded Youyao and others. The other cultivators in Beizhou had no intention of intervening at all, and they all tacitly accepted that these places were the dojo of True Lord Taixu.

"But the problem is that they brought Kaiyuan Prefecture's methods to these four prefectures." Li Shan sighed.

"Which one?" Xuanweizi looked at it with interest.

"It's just to let the people of the Divine Dynasty return to their former days... These are all trivial matters, but he is different now after all. He is no longer confined to the remote place of Kaiyuan Prefecture. He controls 20% of the land in Northern Continent, and his influence is quite great."

"The people of other prefectures have already known about the changes in these places, and their hearts are all concerned about the Taixu Zhenjun Temple. Many people have risked their lives to migrate there under the cover of night. Many of my fellow apprentices have come to complain to me about this."

"..."

Xuan Weizi listened quietly and found it quite interesting: "It's no wonder that he is blamed for affecting these young people's acquisition of the imperial energy... What are you going to do?"

It seems that this method is very effective, but in fact, in the end, others can only be forced to follow suit. It is equivalent to nothing changing, but everyone gets less imperial energy.

“Disciples think differently than others.”

Unexpectedly, Li Shan shook his head and said, "When I first traveled to Kaiyuan Prefecture, I had similar thoughts. The great catastrophe now is because the Human Emperor is unjust and wants to go against the will of heaven, overthrow the Immortal Court, and no longer recognize the Immortal Court and the Divine Dynasty to rule the world together. He wants to be an arbitrary and tyrannical monarch."

“But now the situation has been determined.”

"Why should we act like thieves with a guilty conscience, wishing to take all the imperial energy at once? Why should we be in a hurry for the incense of eternity? I don't think that Junior Brother Taixu is like what our fellow disciples think, and he is not trying to fight for the incense in this way. He just has enough confidence and is not afraid of others taking anything away from him."

"To put it in a broader sense, since we are the common masters of heaven and earth, why should we differentiate between you and me?"

Li Shan bowed to his master and said, "This is the posture of an Immortal Emperor. I should emulate this."
